Subject: My Higher Power work though Creed

Weathered! I was trying to get closer to my Higher Power and these songs have taken me in that direction. I listen to these songs and never get sick of hearing them. Sometimes, I get goose bumps when I listen to the lyrics. 
The tickets at the Fleet Center show in Boston in February 2002, sold out in 15 minutes on the internet at ticketmaster.com. I looked at prices through agencies and I was able to afford them...I thought about it alot. "How can I get these tickets? I really want to go to this concert!" I have seen Bob Segar, Waylon Jennings w/Hank Williams, Jr., and I liked them. I felt deprived on the concert scene.
I am working a program, that is teaching me to let go and let God. I was able to let go and let God when I realized I was obsessing over trying to get these tickets.
I got home from work the night before the concert and my sister called me, she had tried to win the tickets on mix98.5. She told me a girl in Lowell won them named Nicole. I told her I didn't know a Nicole, so I won't be going. Guess who called me? This woman at work that I didn't get along with, haven't since the day we laid eyes on each other. Her daughter was the one who won the tickets. The woman from work had heard me talking about wanting to go to the concert.  She told her daughter and she chose me. My Letting Go and Letting God experience.
Creed your message or HIS message  is wonderful and it meant so much to see you in concert. You are coming to Mansfield, July 25, which I am sure you know...lol. 
I told my kids and husband, I would take them to your next concert. Didn't think you were coming back to this area, so soon. If we are supposed to be there, we will. When we first got in to the Fleet Center, I remember being a nervous about being in such a great, big place. With everything that had gone on in September, it was scary. Had to remind myself to let go and let God again. Your concert was great and the whole time I was Reaching Higher 4 Faith! I did feel it there. Rock on!!!
